Steve Roberts will give a talk on Mr Selfridge – Fact and Fiction

A former teacher – with a second career in IT – Steve Roberts’ passions are writing, history, and football.
In this talk he gives a fascinating talk, 'Mr Selfridge Fact and Fiction', in which he tells the story of the real retail entrepreneur but also looks at how he was depicted in the TV series. What did they get right and what did they get wrong? Steve reveals all as he lifts the lid on the store, the Selfridge family, the romantic liaisons and more besides'.
